Zipline to create OhioHealth’s Columbus drone delivery network

Leading global instant logistics company Zipline is expanding its US business activity with the addition of OhioHealth to the list of clients selecting the startup’s integrated Platform 2 drone transportation network to speed deliveries to destinations at lower costs.

South San Francisco-based Zipline announced the news today, adding OhioHealth to an existing client roster that includes GNC, Michigan Medical, and Novant Health. Under the new agreement, the two companies will use the Platform 2 drone system to assemble a network capable of reaching 2 million people in the Columbus, Ohio, area with fast and sustainable aerial deliveries by 2025.

Use of Zipline’s new generation of UAVs and automated docking and loading tech will permit OhioHealth to conduct two aspects of its business with increased efficiency that the companies say will directly benefit customers.
